Going Fishing

updated 17/03/2014: Dimension Stamps have now changed their name to Nina Crafts.All stamps used are from Dimension Stamps

This stamp makes me laugh, it's called 'Cecil goes Fishing' ref: NC030
and is part of the Has Been range of stamps from Dimension Stamps. I stamped him onto the circle white card,
that was left over from one of the last class sessions and used one of the left over
black circles for the matt. I stamped
the image using Memento - Tuxedo Black and coloured in using Pro/Flex
Markers. I also stamped the fishy bits
onto another piece of white card and once coloured I cut out leaving a little
white border around each, these stamps are from the 'Under the Sea' project
club stamp set ref: 2300032a, love this set.
For the background blue card I used the row of circles and the straight
line stamps from the 'All Things Christmas' set ref: NC040, just bending them
as I put them onto the Stamp and Stash plate.
I stamped using VersaMark and heat embossed using detail white embossing
powder. I used foam tape and pads to
attach the fishy bits and used double side tape for the circled topper. Finishing off with a little bit of Sakura
Glaze pen on the sunglasses and the eyes.
When colouring Cecil I left his legs a little paler than his head and
body haha, well for the rest of the year he does have his legs covered up lol.

About Me

I'm now 50 and will be until next year and I'll be 50+ until I'm 55, those +'s will just keep on coming. I think you get my meaning haha. I am married to David and have been for 13 years. We have three children between us. Hannelore, Daniel and Andrew.
I'm retired and loving it :) I started crafting when I was 4 years old, my Grandma showed me the wonderful world of Knitting. I like Needlework, Sewing, Scrapbooking, really I'll have a go at anything. These days I seem to make cards more than anything else. The things I post on this blog are my personal opinions or techniques I have come across over the years - I will try to give credit where credit is due.
